As per a new report by the United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC), packaged and processed foods have high amount of salt. The leading national public health institute of the United States also stated that producers know that they are using high amount of salt while manufacturing packaged and processed foods, but still they are ignoring the fact that high consumption of salt has negative impact on health.

Health experts always suggest not consuming excessive amount of salt as it could lead to health problems like increase in blood pressure and hypertension. The high salt intake could also be responsible for stomach cancer, osteoporosis, obesity and kidney stones.
